to save $80m by cutting back on fringe benefits appears to have caused much dissatisfaction among its workers. An informal and internal poll of 3,000 staff, obtained by Reuters, revealed widespread discontent, the agency said.
The poll found that three in four were "very dissatisfied" with cuts to stock discounts, prescription drug payments and parental leave, Reuters said. Other perks will stay, such as a free health plan, gym and beverages.
